are they actually spoilt, or are we just jealous that our parents gave us a shitbox for our first car and not a shiny new bimmer?
Are you jealous your mum paid for my 335i - did I mention it would poo on yours?

my mum paid for your 335i???? damn!

I'm pretty sure any 335i with any sort of mod would poo on mine... but it's ok.

I don't need mine going any faster anyway as I'm racking up the demerit points quick enough as it is

Only kidding, I love all other 335i drivers. I'd suggest we hug it out, but don't want you drawing wood

I think I better get back to work

Rocking up at a pupil's place first time in a bimmer makes a good impression, either that or the parents rethink how much they pay me per hour.

Right now I'm supervising my kids who are doing their weekly exam. Glad to be inside with aircon.

Im confused with alot of things you said

What is a BMW full circle program?
You're only job is tutoring kids and that gives you enough $ for a 135?
You have your own kids as well?
Have you had any hot students who couldnt afford your rate so they have 'paid' u in other ways?

Your life intrigues me....

BMW full circle program - it's less awesome than it was before, but it is essentially a lease with a guaranteed residual that BMW will honour. My guaranteed value is 53% for 4 years. I pay the 47% via normal loan repayments, then give the car straight back to BMW at the end of the contract period. The risk is that I won't be able to private sell or trade my car in for a higher value, but hey can't have the best of everything.

I don't just 'tutor kids', I am employed pretty much full-time at tuition centres where I both teach and manage the other tutors. Private tuition I undertake after hours to obtain extra cash required for me to fully cover my other financial needs. E.g. I will heading out tonight to a student from 6:30 - 8:30.
